Sir Lord Baron Geoffrey von Hatarx VIII, a.k.a. probably the only member of Mushroomhead anyone could identify without a mask, has left the band “for reasons that are best for me as an artist and musician at this juncture in my career,” according to a statement.

That’s obviously pretty vague, but check this shit out: the band’s next show is scheduled for March 17 at Music Lynxx in Mentor-on-the-Lake, OH.
